BlueJay replied to the topic Fruits of the Spirit in the forum Poetry Critiques 10 years ago
Oh good it worked. I’d explain how I did it, but I think it would be too confusing. However, if you really want to know, I can tell you.
Hey, I notice you spell Saviour with a ‘u’. Why is that? I thought America didn’t spell it that way. Same with colour and other words which the website is telling me are wrong.

@sarah-h Oh, you lost your profile pic??? Well, the one you have no is cute. 🙂 I have a friend who as a cockatiel.
As for the poem, it’s great. I hope you don’t mind, but let me try something…

@Bluejay, I wondered if you’d like to be e-mail pen-pals? I know you’re four years older than me; and we’ll in all probability never meet, as we live on opposite corners of the world; and I’m not a writer (of fiction at least 🙂 )…but I’d like to get to know you better, and correspond regularly, if you’d like that. Whadda-ya say, Tessa? 🙂

@daeus I won’t be able to write tonight either. I’ve got stuff I need to do. Sorry. 🙁
@dragon-snapper You’re Deaus’s only hope. -

Correct me if this doesn’t make sense, but this was a quote that I made up myself.

@daeus Yes, I did realize what the visual allowed you to see. I had planed on doing a cross first, but the words came and formed a body, which I like better.
Okay, yeah, I understand that. Thanks for critiquing this for me. I don’t normally write poetry, but I love this form.
Do you mind if I submit this poem to KP with your changes, as long as I…[Read more] -

Long time no see. Nice to “see” you again! 🙂-
Hey @gretald! Nice to “see” you again too! It has been a long time since I’ve been around KP. Mostly because I was gone for the summer at camp as a counselor. I missed the community here! How was your summer? Did you have any family vacations?

@rolena-hatfield Being a camp counselor is fun, though! 🙂 What sort of camp was it? My summer was awesome! I got to go on a nice long vacation and have some quality time with my family.

Oh, okay. Man, I really need to read the Chuck Black books. 🙂 Both of those names are really clever. -

I love the idea of spell words backwards. I need to try that sometime. Which author did you pick that up from? 😉 -

@aella
Hi. I love names. 🙂 I usually just think of random letter combinations, or, if I want the word to mean something specific, I look up names that mean ________ [insert meaning]. I also have a thesaurus called The Thinker’s Thesaurus: Sophisticated Alternatives to Common Words by Peter E. Meltzer, which has a lot of unusual words in it.…[Read more] -

BlueJay replied to the topic Bible Challenge in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years ago
@sarah-h As you know I’m running the book club, so I have to read the Hobbit. I’m disappointed that it won’t be a solid month without fiction, but still, reading only one book (and not even the full thing) isn’t that bad. I’m really glad that I’ve done the challenge though. I’ve found better books to read, and they are challenging me in the way…[Read more]

@bluejay, Wow! this is fabulous! I love the way you go from one word, ‘nothing’, to lots and then one, ‘idea’ again at the end. 🙂

@emma-flournoy Sure. I’d like to do that. I’ll warn you now, I’m terrible a checking my own writing, so you’ll probably end up with a lot of spelling and grammar errors in the emails. Mum is trying to get me to slow down so she’ll read my first two or three emails, so they should be problem free. 🙂 (My fingers try to keep up with my brain and…[Read more]
Oh yay! I’m glad you want to… 😉
I’ll e-mail Sarah and ask for your address; how do I e-mail her? :/
And I’m extremely meticulous with my spelling and grammar, so we should be a good match then!
@Bluejay
Just email me at kingdompenmag@gmail.com! 🙂
Thanks @spradlin. 🙂
@emma-flournoy Can’t wait for the first email between us.
